Pulse Series Overview
The Pulse speaker cabinet line has undergone a full facelift, including a harder and more durable finish, a change to denser, more rugged Birch plywoods, upgraded hardware and in some cases redesigned crossover and horn protection circuitry. In addition, there are a number of new models, and some existing models have undergone significant cosmetic and performance upgrades.
More Power ... Bigger Sound ... Better Value ...
The first thing you will see is a radical new look. The Ultrathane coating is the hardest cabinet finish Yorkville has used to date. Denser birch plywood helps bottom end projection and makes sure these cabinets are built to last a lifetime. The look makes the improved Pulse line the perfect choice for club and installs where the unobtrusive hard finish might be better suited than Pulse 'True Blue'.
The first thing you will hear is extended high frequency and clarity from upgraded compression drivers. You will feel a much bigger and fuller bottom end from slightly larger (in some cases) tuned boxes with redesigned proprietary woofers.
A protection scheme also makes it's debut on select cabinets in the Pulse line this time out. The TL352 is the first to come equipped with the PTC horn protection system.
Pulse TL315PTC is an ingenious current sensing / self resetting breaker that offers some serious advantages over current protection schemes used in many loudspeaker cabinets. This protection scheme, while always present in the signal path, remains inaudible until it becomes necessary for it to react. It kicks in at a point where it effectively reduces output to the horn and protects the diaphragm from damage due to excessive power input or signal distortion. Unlike a breaker it does not require a physical reset to allow signal back to the horn driver, and unlike a bulb or fuse, does not need to be replaced if the circuit is tripped, and the fuse is blown.
Where PTC shines is in heavy feedback environments where most horn diaphragm damage occurs. In rare situations even where a microphone might be dropped in a monitor, the sustained 'squeal' can destroy diaphragms in seconds. PTC will significantly reduce output level to the horn to protect the diaphragm. When the situation has been rectified, and the feedback eliminated the horn will return to full operating level within half a second.
Several cabinets in the improved Pulse line will continue to use the tried and true CTL protection scheme where lower powered systems may not need the additional protection PTC can provide.
One of our most versatile and functional loudspeaker designs.
The Pulse TM352 and TM12 are, by design, made to be the single most useful speaker you've ever owned.
A unique cabinet shape makes them a natural for use as a wedge monitor, yet the overall design, with recessed handles and recessed input jackplate means the cabinet can be easily used vertically as a front of house loudspeaker. An overall trapezoidal shape and integrated standmount adapter means the Pulse TM-Series monitors can be pole mounted for front of house use, or arrayed in any install.
